Brendan sits down with visual artist KC Adams, during the Canadian Clay Symposium held at the Shadbolt Centre in Burnaby British Columbia. In their conversation they talk about traditional ways of knowing and contemporary art practices. Before the chat, the gang got together to unpack how they are looking at decolonizing their own practices in the studio and in the class. Today’s Kaolin Crushes are: Joël Brodovsky-Adams, Karine Giboulo, and Sarah Leckie. Robin Wall Kimmer and her book Braiding Sweetgrass are also mentioned in the episode.

We are collecting questions for a future episode about making a life and career in the arts. Please send us a voice memo of your question about professional practices before June 1st and we will gladly feature you on the podcast. You can email your questions to kilnsitters@gmail.com. We look forward to hearing from you.
